Caution
Stable center of gravity region
In order to make the forklift truck stable, the combined
center of gravity has to be within the triangle formed by
contact point of the front left and right tires and the
midpoint of the rear axle.
If the combined center of gravity is on the rear axle, the two
front tires will form a fulcrum and the forklift truck will tilt
forward. If the combined center of gravity moves out of the stable center of gravity triangle, the
forklift truck will roll over in the direction towards the combined center of gravity.
Caution
Maximum load (weight and load
center distance)
The horizontal distance between the center of gravity of the load
on a fork and the load
-
backrest of the fork or the front surface of
the fork (whichever is smaller) is called the load center distance.
The maximum load refers to the maximum load that the fork can
bear at the standard load center distance. The relationship
between the maximum load and the load center distance is
shown on the Bearing Capacity Chart of the forklift truck. If the load center distance moves towards
the front fork, the overall center of gravity will move forward, thus the load has to be reduced.
Caution
Bearing Capacity Chart
The chart shows the relationship between the location of
the load center distance and the maximum load. Check
whether the load and the load center distance are within
the allowable range of the Bearing Capacity Chart before
loading. If the load shape is irregular, the heaviest part
should be placed in the center of the fork and close to the
load
-
backrest.
